Light over Traverse city, MI
A witness account on file, unevaluated. Most of the archive rests here, and honestly so.
The report, as filed
I was at pizza hut on 31 in traverse city michigan pulling out of the parking lot and I noticed a blue fireball white fire around that. It had a small tail so I thought maybe it was a very close asteroid then it got darker, brighter, darker, then brighter again then extinguished but looked like it may have went farther than I could see. So I looked up into the sky from where in would have came from and there was a solid white (non blinking) moving star ( for lack of a better term) that was in the location of where the ball of fire came from all with out makinga sound. My question is did I just see how planet seeding works or something?

Ask for the records
What would the paper say?
For a dated, located U.S. sighting, FAA radar data and ATC communications are the records most likely to exist. Through Aletheca, the house instrument, anyone can commission the request — filed, chased, and published in the open, refusals included. The draft goes over already written: the records sought, and the date window they would live in.
